Damai LRT station (PE7) is an LRT station on the Punggol LRT Line East Loop in Singapore. It was once not opened for passenger service as there was little development around the area. The station was finally opened on 20 June 2011, together with Woodleigh to celebrate the eighth anniversary of the North East Line.[1]

Etymology

The name means "peaceful" in Malay. It was recommended for reason of cultural diversity in the selection of names.[2] It should not be confused with Jalan Damai, a road which is located off Bedok Reservoir Road in the eastern part of Singapore.
